- Flip the power switch (M) to “I” to turn on.
- After use, flip the power switch (M) to “O” to turn off.
Calculating magnification power
Total magnification power is calculated by multiplying the magnification power
of the eyepiece and the objective lens.
Eyepiece magnification power| Objective lens magnification power|
Total magnification power
---|---|---
10x (A)
| 2x (E)| 20x
4x (E)| 40x
Observing through the microscope
A. For observing slides or translucent specimens, use the translucent stage
plate (G). Flip the light switch (L) to “II” to turn on the transmitted light
lamp (H).
B. For observing solids or opaque specimens, use the black/white stage plate
(Q). Use the black side for light colored specimens and the white side for
dark colored specimens. Flip the light switch (L to “I” to turn on the
incident light lamp (F).
Place the eyepieces (A) into the adjustable eyepiece housing (C).
NOTICE: There is an option to secure the eyepieces (A), tighten the screw
on the side of the adjustable eyepiece housing (C) to lock the eyepieces (A)
in place.
-
Attach the eye cups (P) onto the eyepieces (A).
-
Remove the cover of the objective (E).
-
Rotate the objective (E) to the lowest magnification power setting.
NOTICE Start with the lowest magnification power every time a new specimen is placed on a stage plate (G/Q). Most observations are made at low magnification power. -
Place a slide, a small object or a petri-dish holding a specimen (not included) onto the stage plate (G/Q). Secure the slide or specimen with the stage clips (O) if needed.
-
Turn the height adjustment knob (J) to adjust the height of the head (D) to an estimated viewing distance.
-
Look into the left eyepiece (A), rotate the focus knob (N) slowly until the image is clear. Adjust the position of the slide/specimen if needed.
-
Look into the right eyepiece (A), rotate the diopter adjustment (B) until the image is clear.
-
Look into both eyepieces (A), move around the adjustable eyepiece housing (C) until the two images merge into one.
-
Rotate the objective (E) to the higher magnification power. Re-adjust the focus using the focus knob (N) and the diopter adjustment (B) if needed.
-
After using the microscope, remove the slide/specimen from the stage plate (G/Q).
-
Switch off (M) and disconnect the adaptor (S) from the socket outlet.
-
Clean the work area and dispose of the used specimens.
